MEC1

ESR1, RAD31, SAD3, protein kinase MEC1, L000000586, S000029404, S000007656, YBR136W
Genome integrity checkpoint protein and PI kinase superfamily member; Mec1p and Dun1p function in same pathway to regulate dNTP pools and telomere length; signal transducer required for cell cycle arrest and transcriptional responses to damaged or unreplicated DNA; facilitates replication fork progression and regulates P-body formation under replication stress; promotes interhomolog recombination by phosphorylating Hop1p; associates with shortened, dysfunctional telomeres
Saccharomyces cerevisiae (S288c)

HUG1

L000004561, YML058W-A
Protein involved in the Mec1p-mediated checkpoint pathway; transcription is induced by DNA damage; protein abundance increases in response to DNA replication stress

Dosage Lethality

A genetic interaction is inferred when over expression or increased dosage of one gene causes lethality in a strain that is mutated or deleted for another gene.

Publication

NORF5/HUG1 is a component of the MEC1-mediated checkpoint response to DNA damage and replication arrest in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Basrai MA, Velculescu VE, Kinzler KW, Hieter P

Analysis of global gene expression in Saccharomyces cerevisiae by the serial analysis of gene expression technique has permitted the identification of at least 302 previously unidentified transcripts from nonannotated open reading frames (NORFs). Transcription of one of these, NORF5/HUG1 (hydroxyurea and UV and gamma radiation induced), is induced by DNA damage, and this induction requires MEC1, a homolog of the ... [more]
